Demons Of The Night

Treacherous demons
plagues to my slumber
dreams, no doubt thou have come to encumber

A pronounced coward fearing remorse
drawn to insomnolence as final recourse

Madness inevitable sure to prevail
delusions effuse in ghastly detail
revealing secrets of a conscience in ail.

    I like the third line of the 1st stanza.

    The vocabulary is very hooking, it makes me want to see more.

    Ghastly Detail,

    I really like this poem, for the fact that it flows and still rhymes, the rhyming seems almost, a mistake.

    Great write.

    Very dark and haunting. Great rhythm and interesting word choices, with an old-world feel. I'm left to wonder at what is troubling your conscience, what secret you are hiding from yourself.

    I've always been a sucker for the more lexiphanic side of language. I mean, encumber, such a delicious word. That aside, this poem is quite captivating. Great work.
